Chapter 804: Taste the Flavor of Reincarnation

~8 min read 1,465 words

But the chains easily pierced through the protective shield, tightly binding his four limbs.

The other three Venerables also launched their attacks one after another.

Venerable Azure Dragon transformed into his ten-thousand-foot true Azure Dragon form, wanting to break free from the restraints.

Venerable White Tiger condensed a phantom of the White Tiger, letting out a heaven-shaking roar.

Venerable Vermilion Bird went even further, burning his origin, and flames soared into the sky.

But all resistance was in vain.

The Lun Hui Heaven-Trapping Array is a top-tier Array created personally by an ancient Imperial Sovereign.

Below the level of a Sovereign, it is fundamentally impossible to shake.

The more the four Supremes struggled, the tighter the chains wrapped around them.

Their power of laws was like a clay ox entering the sea, disappearing without a trace.

"Damn it! What kind of Array is this!"

Venerable Xuanwu was filled with shock and rage.

He had traversed the Upper Planes for tens of thousands of years; when had he ever encountered such a situation?

"Venerable Xuanwu, your ambition is too great."

A cold, clear female voice rang out.

Nine figures emerged from the Void; they were the nine Great Empresses.

Sima Xue stood at the very front, looking at the four Supremes with icy eyes.

"Who are you people?"

Venerable Xuanwu asked through gritted teeth.

"How dare you scheme against this Venerable!"

Zhao Ling'er chuckled: "Our Master is an existence you will never be able to reach."

"Master?"

Venerable Azure Dragon was filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

"What kind of person is qualified to have you nine Supremes call them Master?"

"You will know soon enough."

Hua Qiangu said coldly.

"But before that, taste the flavor of Lun Hui."

As the words fell, the nine Great Empresses simultaneously activated the Array.

They occupied the nine-palace positions, their auras connected.

The power of the Lun Hui Heaven-Trapping Array surged tenfold in an instant!

The Six Paths of Lun Hui spun crazily, and a terrifying suction force came from the Gate of Reincarnation.

Venerable Xuanwu and the others felt their souls being pulled.

Endless pain surged into their hearts, making them unable to help but scream out loud.

"Ahhh!"

The four Supreme powerhouses rolled and struggled within the Array.

But the more they struggled, the more intense the pain became.

The power of Lun Hui targets the soul's origin; it is fundamentally impossible to defend against.

"Stop! This Venerable admits defeat!"

Venerable Xuanwu finally could not endure it any longer.

He, a dignified peak Supreme, actually had no power to fight back in front of this terrifying Array.

The other three Venerables also begged for mercy one after another.

But the nine Great Empresses remained expressionless, continuing to activate the Array.

This was a mission entrusted by His Majesty; they had to completely crush the opponent's will.

Only by letting them feel despair would they truly submit.

Just as Venerable Xuanwu was on the verge of collapse, a figure slowly emerged.

Lin Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, appearing in the Void.

He was still that same calm and composed self, as if he were merely watching a play.

But the moment he appeared, the atmosphere of the entire Heaven Beyond Heaven changed.

A pressure as vast as the sea descended, making all four Supremes feel suffocated.

"Sovereign!"

Venerable Xuanwu's pupils shrank sharply.

This young man was actually a Sovereign powerhouse!

And looking at his aura, he was definitely not the type who had just broken through.

"Venerable Xuanwu, I give you two choices."

Lin Xuan's voice was terrifyingly calm.

"First, swear a soul oath to serve me."

"Second, sink into Lun Hui for eternity."

Venerable Xuanwu looked at Lin Xuan and suddenly felt a fear that went deep into his marrow.

This fear did not come from a gap in strength, but from a suppression of the essence of life.

It was as if this young man before him controlled his life and death, his Lun Hui.

"You... who exactly are you?"

He asked with a trembling voice.

Lin Xuan smiled faintly: "The Great Emperor of Lun Hui from the Middle Plane, Lin Xuan."

"In the future, the ruler of the Upper Plane."

This sentence exploded in the hearts of the four Sovereigns like a bolt from the blue.

Middle Plane?

How could such a low-level plane with thin Spirit Qi possibly give birth to a ruler-level powerhouse?

And such a young ruler at that!

"Impossible..."

Venerable Qinglong muttered to himself.

"The laws of heaven and earth in the Middle Plane do not allow for the existence of a ruler..."

"My existence, in itself, transcends common logic."

Lin Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the four of them.

"Now, make your choice."

"Either submit, or die."

Looking into Lin Xuan's deep eyes, the last bit of resistance in Venerable Xuanwu's heart completely collapsed.

He knew that the existence before him meant what he said.

If they did not submit, he would truly make them sink into Lun Hui for eternity.

"I... I am willing to submit."

He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with unwillingness.

"Great Elder!"

The other three Sovereigns looked at him in shock.

Venerable Xuanwu gave a bitter smile: "What else can we do if we don't submit?"

"In front of him, we are not even as good as ants."

"Rather than die, it is better to live."

He looked at Lin Xuan and said respectfully: "Xuanwu is willing to swear a soul oath to serve the Great Emperor for eternity."

The other three Sovereigns exchanged glances and also expressed their stances one after another.

"Qinglong is willing to submit."

"Baihu is willing to submit."

"Zhuque is willing to submit."

Lin Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Four marks of Lun Hui flew from his fingertips and entered the bodies of the four people respectively.

The soul oath took effect instantly, firmly binding their origins.

From this moment on, the four Sovereign powerhouses became Lin Xuan's servants.

"Very good."

Lin Xuan waved his hand, and the Array slowly dissipated.

The four Sovereigns regained their freedom, but there was no joy on their faces.

They understood that they had completely lost their freedom.

"After you go back, continue to act as your Elders."

Lin Xuan said faintly.

"Do what you must, but secretly collect intelligence for me."

"I must know every move of the Taixuan Divine Dynasty."

"Also, slowly win over other Elders to prepare for the future attack on the Divine Dynasty."

The four Sovereigns respectfully accepted the order.

They were incomparably shocked in their hearts; this Great Emperor's ambition was actually so great.

Not only did he want to control the Middle Plane, but he also wanted to subvert the entire Upper Plane!

"Additionally."

Lin Xuan continued.

"I am very interested in the news of Taixuan Heavenly Venerable's seclusion."

"Find out exactly what realm he is attempting to break through to."

Venerable Xuanwu hurriedly said: "Reporting to the Great Emperor, Taixuan Heavenly Venerable is attempting to break through to the late stage of the Ruler realm."

"He has been in seclusion for ten thousand years and may emerge at any time."

Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed.

Late stage of the Ruler realm?

It seems this Taixuan Heavenly Venerable truly has some ability.

However, that is all.

"Closely monitor his movements; report immediately once he emerges."

"Yes, Great Emperor."

Lin Xuan waved his hand to signal the four to leave.

Venerable Xuanwu and the others felt as if they had been granted amnesty and hurriedly took their leave.

After they return to the Taixuan Divine Dynasty, they must act as if nothing happened.

Otherwise, if others discover anything unusual, the consequences will be unimaginable.

After watching the four of them leave, the nine empresses gathered around.

"Your Majesty, are we just letting them go back like this?"

Sima Xue was somewhat worried.

"What if they turn against us..."

"They won't."

Lin Xuan said confidently.

"The Lun Hui mark firmly controls their life and death."

"As long as I have a single thought, I can make them vanish into ashes."

"Moreover, I left a contingency in the mark."

"Everything they see and hear, I can perceive."

Only then were the nine empresses relieved.

They admired His Majesty's deep foresight even more.

This move not only captured four supreme powerhouses.

But also planted four hidden pieces in the upper plane.

When attacking the Taixuan Divine Dynasty in the future, they will surely play a huge role.

"Let's go back."

Lin Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking toward the Void.

The upper plane, Taixuan Divine Dynasty.

The Xuanwu Hall had been vacant for half a month.

The Great Elder, Venerable Xuanwu, suddenly went missing, causing a stir within the Divine Dynasty.
